Circa 1874. Originally built in 1874 as the first schoolhouse in Ojai, California, the elegantly renovated and updated Lavender Inn offers the amenities of a boutique hotel and the comforts of home. Each of the guest bedrooms in the main house has a distinctive personality and style. Fireplaces, Jacuzzis, private balconies, art and antiques accent the inn. The spacious Provence Cottage boasts a fireplace, entertainment center and kitchenette in the living room. Schedule a relaxing facial, aromatherapy or in-room massage. A gourmet buffet breakfast is served in the dining room or on the veranda overlooking lush gardens with a pond, fountains and private sitting areas. The setting is perfect for weddings, workshops, meetings or reunions. Shops, restaurants and galleries are across the street.

The Lavender Inn

A wonderful, historic inn that's been beautifully updated. The staff is friendly and helpful, there's a small spa next door and it's right in the middle of the small downtown. You can walk to everything, including many good restaurants. It's a small gem so book ahead.
